[QUOTE="michelangelo, post: 1673679, member: 54225"] Yes, I know I was not prudent. My 2008 LaCie external hard drive (probably one To capacity), seems normal when I feed it with electricity, but still does not appear on the finder, nor on the disk utility nor anywhere I can think of, either connected with USB, or fireWire. I have not used it for years and it may be grumpy (then offering flowers may be an option). As it contains movies (I think), I would like to recover its content. Any suggestions worth trying (except back-up all drives with CCC - beyond MacBook Pro only with Time Machine; which I am presently in the process of implementing) ? TIA :'(:'( [/QUOTE]
